Present from my husband 🥰 FTR, I specifically asked for no more LEGO because they take up a lot of space. I’m glad he didn’t listen

I did something today that I haven’t done in ages. Made some art with my own two hands!

Photo collage with night sky and trees at the top, upside down trees under that. There are trees and other green and brown nature on the bottom and right. In between, there’s squares of blue skies and clouds with thin gold dotted washi tape between them. In the upper right is a colorful sun, with rays of all colors and shapes. The center of the sun is a bouquet of flowers

I managed to squeeze in my morning walk just as the sun was coming out. I saw this (sloths 🥰)

Some books on the ground in front of the post of a Little Free Library

One is opened to pages with a read background. The words “When I feel WORRIED and my heart beats fast,
I take big, deep breaths until I feel CALM again.” are inside a light pink heart on the left.

On the right there’s two pictures of sloth faces. The first says says “I close my eyes, &

I am as tired as I look, but we’re almost there!

This pic captures the mood. It was so wonderful I regret not taking pictures of flowers and will probably regret wearing clogs 😔

Various fauna and a red-winged blackbird sits on top of a dead (?) tree in the foreground. There’s a marsh with evergreens on the other side. The sky is grey and cloudy

Ooh, I almost forgot. I only had a brief walk in the parking lot, but the weather was perfect (for me), and there was a slight breeze 🌳 Something blue, something that makes me smile & my heart a little lighter, & darkness made of light 🥰

An empty parking lot, lined with bushes and trees. There are shadows of trees, and a shadow of my arms holding my phone at the bottom of the frame, but the rest is in sunlight. The sky is blue and cloudless

Betty using the squirrel toy as a pillow 🥹

Betty, my medium haired black and white cow cat is sleeping, with her legs over, and head resting on a stuffed squirrel toy. The black patterns on her front legs line up, looking like it could be one leg with a black paw and a white paw.

Betty has a fluffy white chest, and a white mask below her black nose, with a black Beaty mark on either side of her upper lip. She has long white whiskers, white ear tufts, and long white eyebrow whiskers. There’s a faint white smudge on her forehead.

🥰 My view from an early lunch after my second eye procedure 👀 that river!

A rosemary bush in the foreground. There’s a concrete path, then a rail in front of a very full, brown river. On the other side of the river there is a copse of evergreen trees. The sky is blue, with fluffy, white clouds

Current situation 🥰 Her antennae eyebrow whiskers slay me

Betty, my medium haired black and white cow cat stares at the camera, which she knows I’m behind.

She has a fluffy white chest, and a white mask below her black nose, with a black Beaty mark on either side of her upper lip. Her eyes are light green, with a hint of tan in one of them. She has long white whiskers, white ear tufts, and very long white eyebrow whiskers that stick up like antennae.

She’s on my lap, and I’m on a burgundy leather couch with on an orangish blanket over my extended legs. There are a couple throw pillows at my feet.

Um, guys. When I said I wasn’t really close to him, what I should have said is he was a dick to me. I was a “weirdo” in my small, rural high school. Certainly not the worst of my bullies, but not innocent by any means I texted him, confirming it was me and this is what he replied with

I found your number on the Internet somehow.
I wanted to apologize for being a jerk in high school.
I've been thinking about it for years & wanted tell you l'm really sorry

I also saw this snowman, and a couple more that fared worse, on my walk. It was kind of surreal

A snowman with stick arms, wearing a straw hat is in an otherwise bare, green lawn, where an orange carrot rests. In the foreground is a curb and gutter, both covered in dirt. A few brown leaves are in the gutter. In the background is a yellow house with white garage doors and two cars in different shades of grey in the driveway

This was as delicious as it was beautiful. I 🧡 blood orange season!

Blood orange segments arranged mostly by size in a circle, on a white porcelain plate. The red portions of the segments are facing the center. They go from red, to orange, to yellow in varying degrees. The plate is sitting on a green, brown, and black granite surface.

Bloody Mary with Grillo’s pickle juice is so delicious! The beer’s a NA, because sometimes I want something other than water (sparkling or otherwise) The Bloody Mary pint glass says “brewed in Bird in Hand Pennsylvania” 🍻 Go birds! 🦅

Picture of two glasses on a curved wooden coffee table. The right glass is 1/4ish full of beer on a wooden coaster. On the left is a Bloody Mary with ice, spices, and lemons in a pint glass and n a marble coaster. There’s also an AppleTV remote on the table. The rug of the room is multicolored.

One of the views from my quick halftime walk. It had just rained 🥰 I walked a route that I really ought to do daily. It’s just over a mile. I’m thinking after breakfast (to give my sunscreen time to soak in) and with coffee

Mostly bare trees in front of a blue sky with (altocumulus?) fluffy white clouds. There is a large evergreen in the left foreground and a few in the background
